Fire evacuation devices a must for Mumbai high-rises

The Maharashtra government has made it mandatory for buildings that are 20 storeys or higher to have emergency fire evacuation devices in Mumbai. This is to ensure that occupants of high-rises escape fire hazards. While this provision is likely to be extended across the state in due course, Maharashtra is probably the first state in the country to make installation of fire escape devices in high rises a must. This is in addition to the existing requirement of compulsorily having fire-fighting devices.
